CPU: AMD Phenom II X4 Black @ 3.4 GHz
GPU: Sapphire Radeon HD 7790 OC - 1GB DDR5

PSU: Corsair Builder Series CX500 - 500w
MOBO: AsRock 970 EXTREME3
CASE: NZXT Source 210
TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK! :)
Don't you need some storage?
I have a few 500 gb drives laying around. No biggy
Only thing I would change is the PSU. Check out LEPA and Silverstone, they have some very nice modular power supplies for cheap that are far better than that Corsair.
I'll make a build for you. Just to see what you can get.

It's only $17 more than your budget, yet you get a GTX 660!
The Corsair is cheaper than LEPA and Silverstone 80 plus bronze. So really no need in doing that.
I'd rather have a better MOBO than what you have on this list. I may just grow up and spend $450 or $475 and just add a 660 or 650 ti boost.instead of a 7790
